7 Month Old Waking up During Night

Hello, I am desperate for some advice and will try and keep this as condensed as possible. My 7 month old for the past week and a half has been waking up 3-5 times a night and it making me a very crabby person. I recently switched hours at work and need to be up at 5am which has been challenging with my son waking up so much. I still am nursing and it seems the only thing that puts him back to sleep is if I feed him for a couple of minutes until he passes out. My husband tries to get him back down with both rocking, and a bottle. That...

Congestion and Teething?

My poor 10 month old is extremely congested. She is so bad that she cannot even drink her bottle without having to stop every 3 seconds to catch her breath since she can't breathe through her nose. We have tried everything--saline drops, bulb syringe, Vicks Babyrub, Pediacare vapor plug ins, humidifier, raising her mattress. Her pediatrician has her on antibiotics for an ear infection, and also prescribed an antihistimine to help with the stuffy nose. Even with all of this, she is still extremely congested. She has three teeth coming in. Im...
